Which of the below mentioned options helps identify the matching cipher at the client side to the ELB cipher list when client is requesting ELB DNS overSSL?
Cipher Protocol
Client Configuration Preference
Server Order Preference
Load Balancer Preference
Explanations:
The Cipher Protocol refers to the overall protocol (such as TLS) used for secure communication but does not specifically address how ciphers are matched between client and server.
Client Configuration Preference indicates how the client has configured its cipher suite preferences, but it does not directly determine which cipher is selected from the ELB’s list during the negotiation process.
Server Order Preference indicates that the server (in this case, the ELB) determines which ciphers to prioritize from the list it supports. The ELB will select the strongest matching cipher supported by both the client and the server during the SSL handshake.
Load Balancer Preference is not a standard term in SSL negotiations. The ELB does not dictate cipher selection preferences; it operates based on the security policy and the available ciphers it supports, along with the client’s capabilities.
I evaluate that the answer is:
Server Order Preference
